You may feel blissful today, even if events in your life are not unfolding as planned. Thoughts of the many blessings you have received over the course of your existence can inspire you to adopt a more upbeat attitude toward your circumstances. This attitude will then likely manifest itself in your experience as a sense of unflappable hope that sustains your spirits. This optimism can become the anchor that stabilizes you and allows you to immerse yourself in your ambitions. However, you will also likely accept today that outer world circumstances will not necessarily increase your happiness. You may thus gain a new perspective on the true source of joy.

When we harbor hope in our hearts, we can retain a sense of bliss no matter how troublesome or dire our circumstances. We understand that life will get better soon and that the challenges we are facing in the present are temporary in nature. Consequently, we can focus on life's brighter side without succumbing to the trivial objections that might otherwise cause us to feel a sense of disheartening disillusionment.
Our solace comes from our belief in the inevitability of change and the knowledge that we are well-equipped to cope with the troubles that are a expected part of being human. Since the happiness we feel comes from within, our circumstances no longer have the power to negatively impact our moods. The positivity you feel today will seldom falter as your mood is a result of your upbeat outlook rather than situational in nature.
